Thames RC 150th Anniversary

Thames Rowing Club is holding the second of a series of reunion lunches to mark its forthcoming 150th anniversary. This one is for all those who were active at Thames during the 1980s and 1990s.

It will be held on Sunday 22nd November at the TRC Clubhouse. The bar will be open from 11am, with lunch served at 12:30. The cost will be £15 for two course lunch including wine.

This event is very definitely open to lapsed and ex-members of the Club, as well as those who are still members.

Our tireless House Manager, Mike Gratton, is coordinating the event. You can write to him at [email protected] or at the clubhouse. Payment for the dinner should be by cheque made payable to Thames Rowing Club or by funds transfer (email Mike to obtain the account details).

The first event, for those active prior to 1980 was a great success – over 40 members attended and the proverbial good time was had by all. A third event, for those active from 2000 onwards, will follow in early 2010.
